Abstract

The aim of this study was to identify the effect of free style swimming on anthropometric measurements and body composition among female students of Physical Education at Palestine Technical University- Kadoorie. The researchers used the experimental approach for the pre- and post-measurement to suit the nature of the study. The purposive sample consisted of (16) female students from female students who hadn't yet registered in swimming courses and could perform free style swimming. The results of the study revealed significant differences in anthropometric measurements (Arm length, waist circumference, Pelvic circumference, Thigh circumference and leg circumference) and didn’t reveal significant differences in measuring total weight and chest circumference, While the results revealed that there were statistically significant differences in body composition measurements (fat mass ratio, water mass weight ratio(, and didn’t reveal significant differences in measuring body mass index (BMI(. The researchers recommended to practice free style swimming because of its positive effect on measurements of some anthropometric and body composition.

الملخص

هدفت الدراسة التعرف إلى أثر السباحة الحرة على القياسات الانثروبومترية وتركيب الجسم لدى طالبات تخصص التربية الرياضية في جامعة فلسطين التقنية خضوري، وقد استخدم الباحثون المنهج التجريبي للقياس القبلي والبعدي لملائمته طبيعة الدراسة، وقد تكونت العينة من (16) طالبة تم اختيارهن بالطريقة العمدية من الطالبات اللواتي لم يسجلن في مساقات السباحة بعد ويستطعن السباحة الحرة، وقد أظهرت النتائج بوجود فروق دالة إحصائيا بالقياسات الانثروبومترية (طول الذراع، ومحيط الخصر، ومحيط الحوض، ومحيط الفخذ، ومحيط الساق) ولا توجد فروق ذات دلالة إحصائية في قياس (الوزن الكلي ومحيط الصدر( وأظهرت نتائج الدراسة أيضاً أيضاً وجود فروق دالة احصائياً في قياسات تركيب الجسم (نسبة كتلة الدهون، ونسبة وزن كتلة الماء)، ولا توجد فروق ذات دلالة إحصائية في قياس مؤشر كتلة الجسم (BMI)، وقد أوصى الباحثون بممارسة السباحة الحرة لما لها أثر إيجابي على بعض المتغيرات الجسمية وتركيب الجسم.
